A Few Good Reasons Why You Should Vote Briscoe For Governor HANK GROVER Besides the fact that Grover's politics are a little to the right of King Kong*, Hank Grover would be a most ineffective governor. He has many enemies in Austin and his Republican power base in the Legislature is too small yet to help him get across his ideas to any significant degree. PRECINCT POLITICS The number of votes for Dolph Briscoe in each precinct determines the number of delegates your precinct can send to the next state senatorial conventions and ultimately to the 1974 state Democratic convention. The best way to lessen your precinct's delegate strength is to vote for either Hank Grover or Ramsey Muniz. By doing so you also lessen your own ideological orientation's strength at these conventions. In ef- fect you voluntarily give up your right to help guide the future of the Democratic Party of Texas. DOLPH BRISCOE Dolph Briscoe has shown himself to be fair. At the state Democratic conventions held last June and Sep- tember, Dolph showed us he can play fair. For the first time in quite a long time the liberals got everything they were entitled to, as did the moderates and conservatives. Dolph will undoubtedly carry this same sense of fair play with him when he becomes a part of state politics in Austin. Sissy Farenthold, Dolph's guberna- torial opponent last spring in the primaries, thinks he will continue in this same spirit of reform, and so do I. And we both urge all concerned Texans to vote for Dolph Briscoe for Governor on November 7.
